Nani's Goal

Although I don’t condone cheating and I truly support fair play.
Nani's goal yesterday was a freak incident that in true fairness points to the pressures of financial involvement in the world of football today, the position at the end of the season counts on goals if equal on points, the pize kitty is bigger the higher you finish, the Champions League spot is worth £50 million.

In a local park today you will probably see a player stop as the ball went out or he thought he was offside, when the referee has not blown the whistle, you will also hear his coach scream 'why did you stop, did the ref blow?

So why would a player stop play in the premiership when the ball is STILL in play?
Fair play would be considered if a player is down injured and you put the ball out, or you pass the ball back from the same throw in.
Obviously cheating should and is discouraged from the game. Diving is a major part of the problem, but when you are presented with a chance to score a goal because the opposing goalkeeper chose to believe it should have been a foul, and then I am afraid Spurs should point the finger at their keeper Gomes.
Clatenburg has been involved in many incidents; he should be disciplined for not blowing the whistle, regardless of whether he thought Spurs had the advantage or not.
Would I have done the same in a Sunday league match? Yes, it gives my team 3 points.
